907-GEM card and Port Rx Activity LEDs are green when packets are being received into the 907-GEM card. Also, the quad RJ-45 jack of the 907-GEM card has LEDs to indicate the link status of each copper port; the orange LED indicates 10 Mbps, the yellow LED indicates 100 Mbps and the green LED indicates 1000 Mbps.
3-19. The console card‟s electrical and optical interfaces are identical to the remote, the only difference is that pin 1 of the dip switch SW1 needs to be set “ON” for remote configuration (907-GEM-R) or “OFF” for console configuration (907-GEM-C).
Model 907 Video/Data Multiplexer – User’s Guide 4.0 Media Converters Model 907 media converter cards are PC/104 form-factor modules used to provide optical transmission of high-speed data signals (20-1500 Mbps), such as Ethernet, ECL/PECL for multi-beam sonar links, IEEE-1394 (widely known as “Firewire”) for digital cameras and digital high-definition video (SMPTE-292). Media converters may be deployed as standalone cards using a designated fiber or as CWDM versions that are optically multiplexed with a motherboard or other media converter cards.
The fiber link is limited to a length of 2 km when half-duplex mode is used, as per IEEE 802.3 standards. If the 907-MC card is configured to use full-duplex mode, the fiber link length is limited only by the optical budget.
Appropriate replacement fuse part-numbers are provided in the Appendix A. As shown in Figure 4-3, the 907-1394 card has LEDs for Power, Board Reset, Cable-Link, and Optical Signal Detect. The Power LED is on when the board is powered, the Board Reset LED is on momentarily during power up and continuously for an under-voltage input.
75 ohms to 50 ohms. The 907-ECL card can be ordered as a standalone card (built with short PC/104 connector pins and a short optical jumper from the SFP transceiver to the optical ST/PC bushing) or as a CWDM stacking version, for integration with a 907 multiplexer or other devices.
The 907-HDV (HD-SDI) media converter card is based on the same printed circuit board assembly as the 907-ECL, but using an SFP transceiver with a higher data rate to support the 1.5 Gbaud signals. At the remote (subsea) end, the camera signal is input at SMB jack J1, as shown in Figure 4-5. At the console end, the HD-SDI monitor or processing equipment is attached to jack J3.
Diagnostics: LEDs Only The 907-GBE (Gigabit Ethernet) media converter shown in Figure 4-6 is used to convert a single channel of 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet data into optical format at the remote end and vice-versa at the console end. Regardless of the input data rate, the optical link always runs at 1000 Mbps (1250 Mbaud). This “switchless”...
907-DIAG-E Compatible The 907-GBE2, shown in Figure 4-7, is a Dual Gigabit Ethernet Media Converter and is used to convert two channels of 1000 Mbps Ethernet data into optical format at the remote end and vice-versa at the console end.
Figure 4-8: 907-GBES Media Converter Card The 907-GBES card can supply +5 VDC power to other stacked cards or receive +5 V power from other cards in the stack. In this way, the 907-GBES card behaves like a 907 motherboard or a 907 media converter. Each 907-GBES is fuse limited to 5.0 A for on-board current draw plus total current draw from the stacked cards.
For example, if a 907-485 expansion card is assigned to data port 5, then the channel 5 RS-485/422 channel on the 907 card itself is disabled while the expansion card overrides it. Furthermore, the RS-232 channels (1-4) on the standard 907 card run on dual transceivers, so disabling one channel always disables a second channel, i.e.
10/100 Mbps Ethernet linking and are connected to a switching hub chip. A fourth Ethernet port from the hub chip is used to transmit and receive data through one of the six backplane data ports on the Model 907 motherboard. Local traffic between on-board RJ-45 ports is supported and is not transmitted through the optical link.

Figure 5-10: 907-CIB Control Channel Expansion Card Configure switch SW9 to set the backplane data port used by the 907-CIB card. All ports (1~6) are available. The 907-CIB may also be configured to transmit the multiplexed channel status over an RS-232 port via connector J9, allowing the 907-CIB cards to operate over a spare RS-232 channel or independent copper link.
Diagnostics: None The 907-420 expansion card shown in Figure 5-11 is used to multiplex up to six channels of 4-20 mA inputs. The 4-20 mA input signal is a current-based signaling scheme where 4 mA represents zero percent signal and 20 mA represents the one hundred percent signal. The input current levels are converted to voltages and an ADC is used to digitize the signal.
Note: This card is now obsolete and can no longer be ordered. The 907-USB expansion card is a special card used to convert USB signals to Ethernet, and vice-versa. This card is not outfitted with any optical transceivers, and must be used in conjunction with an Ethernet converter card (e.g.
The 907-AIB expansion card allows standard AIB (Adaptable Interface Board) plug-in modules from the Model 903 systems to be employed in Model 907 stacks. Note that to accommodate the length of the plug-in cards, the sides of the 907-AIB extend 0.28‟‟ outside the normal PC/104 form factor as shown in Figure 5-13.
Switch S1 is used to enable and disable the use of the Model 903 backplane for data I/O to the 907 card. When data I/O is disabled, the Model 903 backplane is only used to supply +5 V power and ground, which supports the use of 907 motherboards and media converters.
907-0601-00 Rev. C Model 907 Video/Data Multiplexer – User’s Guide The 907 Eurocard adaptor PCBA can be configured with either a 4HP- or 8HP-wide front panel for a 3U Eurocard rack. Figure 6-2 shows a 907-EURO Eurocard adaptor card assembly.
907-PC/104 Adaptor board must be used to prevent damage. This card provides isolation between the PC/104 backplane and the Focal 907 stack. Only the +5 V pins and the GND pins are connected through the PC/104 connector. Figure 6-3 shows the 907-PC104 adaptor board.
4 A. The aggregate current output of the DC-DC converter should not exceed 8 A. Typically the 907-DC-24 is mounted on the bottom of a stack or installed separately but near the 907 stack.
The 907-CWDM optics card shown in Figure 6-5 is a two-channel CWDM optical add/drop multiplexer (OADM). The 907-CWDM is able to add or drop individual 1471 nm and 1491 nm CWDM wavelengths to an existing 1310/1550 nm (wider band) WDM signal by daisy chaining to the existing fiber link.
CWDMs. A typical 907-CWDM-4 optics card, shown in Figure 6-6, is used to optically multiplex four standard CWDM channels with 20 nm spacing from P1, P2, P3, and P4, into a single common optical fiber (COM) for connection to the external fiber system, typically at an ST/PC bushing.
2 (blue band) are 1271 / 1291 / 1311 / 1331 / 1351 / 1371 / 1391 / 1411 / 1431 / 1451 nm. Optical insertion loss is typically less than 3 dB per 907-CWDM-8 card. Optical link analysis must account for CWDM cards at both ends of the system.
D2 and D4 are ON when the F3 path is selected. The 907-FOS card can be powered with +5 VDC via the PC/104 backplane or via connector J2 (pin 4 = +5V and pin 6 = GND). The card draws 70 to 90 mA, depending on the switch state – switch position 1 draws the higher current.
Config. Dwg. 907-2031-01 The 907-SPLIT 1x2 optical splitter card, shown in Figure 6-9, is used to split an optical signal for redundant operation. Typically installed at the remote (subsea) end of a 907 system, this card splits the optical power from a multiplexer or media converter card equally into two fiber outputs at F1 and F2.
907-2033-XX The 907-DIAG diagnostics interface card is shown below in Figure 6-10. This card monitors the data traffic on the six data ports as well as the video sync lines and optical link line. Ten 6-pin WAGO headers are provided for harnesses to external status LEDs.
In addition to providing a full protocol description for user-implementation of a software interface to the 907-DIAG-E system, Focal Technologies has created a .NET library and a sample Graphical User Interface for displaying system diagnostics on a Windows-based PC. Refer to the Diagnostic Protocol Manual, 700-0739-00, and the Diagnostic Software Manual, 907-0604-00, for more details on the card capabilities, interfaces, protocol description, and available software development tools.
907-0601-00 Rev. C Model 907 Video/Data Multiplexer – User’s Guide The following table shows a list of the Model 907 cards that are compatible with the 907-DIAG-E card. Table 6-1: 907 Cards Compatible with 907-DIAG-E Card Description 907V 907V Multiplexer Motherboard...
Figure 7-1: Example Optical Configurations Safety All lasers used in the Model 907 system are Class I laser devices per IEC-60825 unless otherwise specified in installation or configuration drawing. No special control measures or warning labels are required, although any needless exposure of the eye should be avoided as a matter of good practice, and fibers should never be viewed with magnifying instruments, e.g.
WDMs and couplers are taken into account. Any remaining power is the optical power margin. Some margin should be allocated for temperature and aging effects, typically 4-6 dB. Minimum flux budgets for 907-based systems range from 16 dB to 26 dB available to the external cables, connectors, FORJs, etc.
8.0 Installation and Operation Mounting Model 907 cards use the standard PC/104 form factor of 3.55 × 3.775 inches (90 × 96 mm). The cards are outfitted with a PC/104 keyed connector to provide backplane connectivity between multiple cards assembled in a vertical stack.
All Model 907 cards require a regulated +5 VDC. The tolerance varies from card to card, but is typically ±5% to ±10%. Current draw varies from card to card, and the total current draw for a stack (if drawn from the motherboard) must be calculated to ensure it does not exceed the fuse rating of the motherboard.
Always replace dust caps on the Model 907 fiber optic bushings when removing connectors. If bushings are left open, they should be cleared of dust with compressed air prior to reconnection. Fiber jumpers and pigtails should be periodically inspected for damage, such as nicks in the jackets or excessive bends.
